If only NYC had the same vision. Instead, they doubled down and elected a communist Islamist as mayor. You couldn’t dream up a worse combination of ideologies, because there isn’t any

I know, right? I lived there for 50 years. I left two years ago but all this stuff began under the Sandinista of New York, Bill DeBlasio.

“Some reporting explicitly referenced comparisons to leaders like former U.S. President Donald Trump and other right-leaning figures in the region.”

Funny, I thought DJT was the current US President.

Stone is right because he understands politics as it is, not as elites wish it were. Chile didn’t “lurch right”—it course-corrected. Voters faced crime, disorder, and economic anxiety and chose accountability over ideology. That pattern is repeating everywhere, from Latin America to Europe to the U.S. Media class blind spots keep producing shock on election night because they ignore what regular people live with daily. Kast’s win wasn’t about labels or personalities; it was about survival and sovereignty. Stone called it because he listens to voters instead of pollsters. Democracy still works when citizens are offered a real choice—and Chile proved it.

I hope all the info from the 70s and 80s will be released to the public re the Disappeared and the role of the CIA and Kissinger.

Did they use voting machines?

Let's hope Kast is not like his father, at least.

Congratulations Chile, for being shown the better way and then choosing it — may God bless your path!
